What soundcard are you using?  What's the error that was reported?

The package that contains 'sndconfig' isn't normally installed
with Debian. It is available though and worked perfectly for
me. Do an 'apt-get install sndconfig' and try it again.

hiya fouad

make sure sound is configured as a module ... 

turn on the sound card option that you have...

turn on MIDI, turn on ESS, turn on OPL,
diff kernel have diff options...
-might need a couple pass as to which options
you needsndconfig tells you what you need

reboot the new kernel w/ sound as modules
- sndconfig

and magic...
your done

Do you know your sound card model? FWIK, you have two way to use your
sc: support with the kernel or support via ALSA.

If your card is a common sound card, probably you will find a kernel
driver that support it, otherwise try with ALSA (www.alsa-project.org).

Don't remember the steps to configure the card with the kernel (usually
you need only to add a line in /etc/modutils if you use a kernel
module), with alsa there is a text base utility to help you to configure
the card. Look in your nearest debian archive (your CD sets or a web
archive) for the proper packages.
